To the Conforto Family: In the dictionary, the word neighbor describes one who lives near or next to. But in the case of Giacomo and his family the word neighbor cant do them justice, and goes so far beyond what's described in the dictionary. In our lives we have never seen not just a man, but a family so generous to help and think of others, not only in time of need but every day. Giacomo was always such a happy outgoing person, who loved life and would give you the shirt off of his back to help you. We feel we've lost not a neighbor, but a brother, a father, and a family member. That's why there is no doubt in our minds that Giacomo is graciously greeted in heaven with open armes, by family and friends he once left behind. We will all miss you dearly Giacomo, but with God's love, we will meet again. Love, The Collins family
